Live: Crusaders v Highlanders (New Zealand Herald)

The forwards go to work for the Crusaders, with Hall organising men to his left on the short side. One out stuff from the home side here, 20 seconds remaining.

Neither team were able to do anything positive with possession for the majority of the second half. There was plenty to play for in the second half, but the 40 minutes that followed were strange. The Crusaders hit back within five minutes in a strange sequence.
